Federal Stafford Loans: Federal Family Education Loan Program (FFELP)

Students are encouraged to complete their programs without borrowing, if at all
possible; however, in some cases it may be necessary to borrow funds to help pay
college-related expenses.

These loans require a separate paper application available only in the Financial
Aid Office. NOTE: Because of the time necessary to process loans, both the completed (reviewed)
FAFSA results and the loan application must be done at least four weeks prior to
the beginning of the registration period for a term. Applications received after
this date may result in not having loan proceeds available in time to assist with
paying for registration.

On-line electronic applications will not be accepted or processed by the Financial
Aid Office.
